That gets hard when you really want to aim for something nearer seq_printf().

Oh, the way the loops in the code are written doesn't look like
it gives the compiler much chance of optimising it very well.
This is probably equivalent:
        for (i = par->gamma.num_curves; i--;) {
                for (j = par->gamma.num_values; j--;)
                        len += sysfs_emit_at(buf, len, "%04x ", *curves++);
                buf[len - 1] = '\n';
        }
and will generate much better code.
(Although most of the cost inside the snprintf() function - which is horrid.)
num_values better be non-zero.
